The judicial ruling, made public on April 15, directly points to the city council for not acting on neighborhood complaints about excessive noise. Justice invokes the Spanish Constitution to underscore the magnitude of the nuisance and criticizes the lack of acoustic measurements from affected homes.
This situation has become entrenched, as the City Council seeks to promote a dynamic economic sector but lacks a suitable venue for large events. The disturbances to residents, which were supposed to be temporary, have become a chronic problem, as music promoters warned in the past due to the lack of spaces.
Promoters, who estimate that 80,000 season tickets are at stake, continue selling tickets, arguing that the ruling offers room for festivals to be held, although they do not explain how. However, nervousness in the sector is palpable, and they have requested an urgent meeting with authorities to seek solutions.
Initially, the València City Council cited "agenda problems" and later responded that it would abide by the ruling, which mandates effective control of noise excesses. The Generalitat, for its part, through the spokesperson of the Consell, Miguel Barrachina, has announced "indispensable requirements" for events at Cacsa, without offering clear alternatives.
The feeling among sector sources is one of helplessness. Alternatives to the City of Arts and Sciences, such as the Mislata Exhibition Center or the Cullera festival venue, require complex management that does not solely depend on promoters.
